Description

Heir to the historic Rock model, from which it derives the typical construction of the forefoot with the protective band that wraps and protects the midsole in the internal area, this technical approach and light climbing shoe is ideal for via ferrata and excursions on mountain paths. The new double lacing Dual Fit System allows you to adjust the comfort and precision of the fit in the different phases of use: a traditional lace for maximum comfort while walking and a fast lacing to increase sensitivity in the climbing phase. The Vibram Approcciosa sole with Megagrip high performance compound provides maximum grip with a specific design for climbing. Also available in a womens version suitable for the specific female plantar anatomy.
